your candour is most refreshing

india knight (let's hope that's a made-up name), writing in this morning's "times", has this to say about women in the workplace: "the truth is that most women are horrible to work for, in the opinion of most of the women I know who work in offices. men aren’t bitches; women are. men don’t stitch you up; women do."

this isn't my view. but it's still fun to hear it. i like her moxie.

India Knight - is actually her real name.

And I think she's partly right. Every female boss I've ever had has been a right royal bitch - maybe they're trying so hard to prove they're worth the job or something?

But obviously I have met some lovely female co-workers.

true, men don't bitch. they can be aggressive, dominant, snotty and whatnot, but they're never back-stabbing.
